- What future approaches (from a pre-set list) will your company take for the continued greening of its decorative paints?

- Does your company participate in any reclamation programme or recycling scheme for either paint packaging or unused paint? .... and if not, do you think this will change in the future?
- How do you rate the economical-ecological buying habits of the professional paint consumers in your country?
